"No person who has not spent a period of his life in those 'stark and sullen solitudes that sentinel the Pole' will understand fully what trees and flowers, sun-flecked turf and running streams mean to the soul of man"

Butlins

Some people liken the Bluff to a Butlins holiday camp, but for the first in and last out there is a lot of work to do as well as fuelling planes etc.There was Rob who had to get all the weather stations and that sort of thing up and running. I had to get the Aga, Rocket bog, generator and water system up and running then there was Pete the Field GA who did the cooking.
